One suspects they are up in arms.;)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Aye, they're mostly either foreign or Local TV rubbish.

Of the remaining two, I guess there may be a minor demand for Ginx, but the less said about ITVBe in HD the better :D

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Just found out that the BBC are developing a radio app for Smart TV's, with the eventual aim of this replacing the EPG radio services on satellite and Freeview.

Cable wasn't specifically mentioned, but I imagine that in the long term VM might go down the same route.

This will obviously be for TiVo customers only, but that might mean everybody by then!

Would this bother people?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Yup, I am devastated....:erm: Thankfully, having recently moved in with the gf has not really noticed ITVbe exists (let alone a HD variation). One hour a week of the Kardashians alone is more than enough.:)

Watch this space hoping to have bit of good news for you next week.

l better get out the celebratory bunting then.:)

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

New Channels or New Apps maybe?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Channel package change it is Home moving to the M pack but am waiting for a source to confirm this.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

They always tended to move channels down to M if they went onto Freeview as TV M was introduced to compete with Freeview.

In recent years, it looked like they had moved away from trying to compete with Freeview and had effectively kicked TV M into the long grass, so it will be interesting to see if this goes ahead.

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Let's hope it IS good news rather than some VM-style crap such as +1's and HD channels. I fancy movies4men and Sony Movies on VM.

You might be disappointed..

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Well there wasn't enough testing done considering the aspect ratio was wrong!

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

Did anybody watch this, or take a peek at TV3?

Were the Irish adverts shown?

Re: Coming Soon to Virgin Media TV (2016)
 

I saw the start, the camera panned towards a building which had a VirginMedia logo above the door next to another logo, maybe TV3?

The aspect ratio was squashed into a 4:3 square.
The female presenter mention the show was being broadcast in the UK via the VirginMedia platform. I switched over shortly after.

I did'nt see the end, but apparently the feed was cut off at 9pm, I think the show had been extended whilst on air, as I've read, someone was speaking and mid sentence when the feed was turned off.

I wasn't around long enough to see any adverts.
